Synopsis: Domestic drama involving two separate triangles. The treatment accorded two married women by their husbands — a parallel social study — forms the theme of the story. Wife No. 1 is married to a laborer, while the other is wedded to a jurist. The judge sends the working man to jail for abusing his better half, never realizing that he is acting with the same brutality toward his own wife— though his treatment is catalogued " neglect." Coincidence brings two women together. When laborer is freed he returns with vengeance toward the judge. The latter's wife becomes reconciled in her desire to protect him.
